Luke 7
1 After he had come to the end of all his words in the hearing of the people, he went into Capernaum.
Ni wa Yesu kle trema wa tre shishi ndji nda hi ni Kapanawum.
2 And a certain captain had a servant who was very dear to him; this servant was ill and near to death.
Akwe soja ri wa he ki ahi ni ner kon ma wa mi som tsutse, a buma si kpama nda yiza que.
3 And when news of Jesus came to his ears, he sent to him rulers of the Jews, requesting that he would come and make his servant well.
Soja wo labari Yesu nda dru ndji bi ninkon bi Yahudawa, hla dun Irji ye nda warka ni vren koh ma.
4 And they, when they came to Jesus, made their request warmly, saying,
Baya wa bu ye ni Yesu ndu bra tsutsi na tre ayi tsa du tie wayi ni wu.
5 It is right for you to do this for him, because he is a friend to our nation, and himself has put up a Synagogue for us.
Ani son gbugbo, wawu yi men Choch nita wu.
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was not far from the house, the man sent friends to him, saying, Lord, do not give yourself trouble: for I am not important enough for you to come into my house:
Yesu chi ka ni wuba. U wa ana zren bran nkon rji ni koh rina, soja tru kpukpan ma duba hla ni wu, “Bachi, na tie kpa me ya na, wu toh mina tsra dun-wu ye ri ni koh mu na.
7 And I had the feeling that I was not even good enough to come to you: but say the word only, and my servant will be well.
Domin wuyi mi na ban ndi mi tsra dun mi ye ni wu na, u wuti hla tre riri mi toh ivren koh mu ni fie sikpa.
8 For I, myself, am a man under authority, having men under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
Me ngame mi he ndji ninkon, mi he ni Sojoji wa ba he ni wo'mu. Mi ti hla ni rhi ndi 'hi,' wa ka hi, miti hla ni rhi ngari ndi 'Ye,' wa ka ye, u ni vren ndu koh mu'a, tie nayi, wa ka tie.”
9 And when these things were said to Jesus, he was surprised, and, turning to the mass of people coming after him, said, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.
Wa Yesu wo naki, ayi mamaki nda gbaya ndji ba ba ta wu nda tre, Mi hla yiwu, ni gbu Israila mina toh ndji iri gin gbagba nayina.
10 And when those who were sent came back to the house they saw that the servant was well.
Biwa ba ton ndu ba gbaye ni kon nda ton vren koh ma aha sikpa.
11 And it came about, after a little time, that he went to a town named Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great number of people.
Ni veh ri, Yesu tsi hi ni gburi wa bayo ndi Nain. Mri kohma bahe niwu, ndji gbugbu u.
12 Now when he came near the door of the town, a dead man was being taken out, the only son of his mother, who was a widow: and a great number of people from the town were with her.
A yi kritsa ni gbu, bu ban gburi awuri ri iyinma grji wawu na tsrina, ndji gbugbu ni gbu ba he niwu.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he had pity on her and said to her, Be not sad.
Ni toh, Irji alika ni tausayi ma, nda tre niwu ni yi na.
14 And he came near, and put his hand on the stretcher where the dead man was: and those who were moving it came to a stop. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Get up.
Aye nda akwati bi ba akwati ba kukri nda la ivren tsey mi la niwu lunde.
15 And the dead man got up, and words came from his lips. And he gave him to his mother.
Ikmo lunde nda sorma tre Yesu ka nu no iyima.
16 And fear came on all, and they gave praise to God, saying, A great prophet is among us: and, God has given thought to his people.
I sissri vu ba wawu mba, ba omangyiri ni Irji, nda la ba chu annabi ri kikle ma ni mi mbu, i Irji jan ndi ma.
17 And this story about him went through all Judaea and the places round about.
Itre Yesu hi kon ni ntsen ni gbu Yahudiya ni gbungblu ba kagon ni wu'a.
18 And the disciples of John gave him an account of all these things.
Mri koh Yohana ba la niwu gbegbeme ikpiyi.
19 Then John sent two of his disciples to the Lord, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?
Yohana yo mri koh mah ha nda ton ba ndu hi ni ndji Yesu. Ba miye u ye? kon akwai ri ki ya konri ye
20 And when the men came to him they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?
Baye wiewiere ni ndji ba tre, Yohana wuyi Batisma, aton ta, diki mbye wuyi u ye'a, ko akwai ndji ri wakiyi yakon yema?
21 At that time, he made a number of people free from their diseases and their pains, and from evil spirits; and to others who were blind he gave back the use of their eyes.
Ni nton ki ndji gbugbu wu ba samu sikpa, iyamba kle, meme ruhu bri ba.
22 And answering them he said, Go back and give news to John of what you have seen, and the things which have come to your ears; the blind now see, those who had no power in their legs are walking, lepers are made clean, those who had no hearing now have their ears open, dead men come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.
Yesu amsa nda hla bawa, hi ndi hla ni Yohana kpe bi wo, ni kpe bi toh ni hishi mbi. Bi ra shishi baya, bi nkpurju za ba lunde zren, bi kuturu ba kpa ngla kpa, mangbi ton ba wo-tre, biwa ba kyu ba kma lunde ni vri, u biwa ba he nimi wa ba wo tre ndindima.
23 And a blessing will be on him who has no doubts about me.
Indji wa ana ka wo tre mu na nitu bi zren mu a kpa lulu.
24 And when the men who were sent by John had gone away, he said to the people, about John, What did you go out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?
U wa mri koh Yohana ba rju ni hi kpamba, Yesu kma ni hla ni gbugbu ndji ba nitu Yohana, “Ahi ngye bi rju hi ni miji si wa bi toh? Indji biwa vi ngyungyu ni fu yi hlega?
25 But what did you go out to see? a man in soft clothing? See now, those who have beautiful clothing and delicate food are in kings' houses.
U bi rju hi ni wa bi toh ngye yi? Indji wa a sru nklon bi ndindi ma? Yayi, biwa ba sru kpi bi tie nklen u nda ni son ni mi iro ba he ni mi koh ba chu.
26 But what did you go out to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
U bina rju hi ni ra ni wa bi toh ngye? Anabi? E, Mi hla ni yiwu, zan u anabi'a.
27 This is he of whom it has been said, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way before you.
Wayi a wawu wa ba nha ngame ni wuh. yra mitub manzo gaba niyin, wa shi mle kon teh niyi.
28 I say to you, Among all the sons of women, not one is greater than John: but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Mi hla yiwu, ndi wa mba bagrji, ba wa nda zah Yohana.
29 (And all the people, and the tax-farmers, to whom John had given baptism, when they had knowledge of these things, gave glory to God.
Baya ndji gbugbu bawo niki, ni bi kpa nklen gandu ba ya ba kpa Irji a ndindima. Ba biwa Yohana yi Batisma bawu.
30 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were against the purpose of God for themselves, not having had his baptism.)
Farisawa ni wa ba ton tre zru Yahudawa bawa, ana Yohana yi Batisma ni bawu na, ba na ya nda ni tre lan na.
31 What comparison am I to make of the men of this generation? what are they like?
Yesu hla ni ge mi hada ndji bi tsara yi? Ba he hi he?
32 They are like children who are seated in the market-place, crying out to one another, and saying, We made music for you, but you did not take part in the dance; we gave cries of sorrow, but you were not sad.
Ba he na mri ba tsi ron ni kasuwa, nda ni tre ni kpamba, “Ki nvri injon ni yiwu, u bina nglu na. ki ban je kyu, u bina yi na.
33 For John the Baptist came, taking no food or drink, and you say, He has an evil spirit.
Nakiyi Yohana aye, na ri hla, ana son mah na bi tre ahe ni brji.
34 The Son of man came feasting, and you say, Here is a lover of food and wine, a friend of tax-farmers and sinners.
Ivren Ndji ye nda ri nda ni so ibi tre yah, ndji branda so, a kpa bi kpa nklen gandu ni bi lahtre.
35 But wisdom is judged to be right by all her children.
Imri ma wawu ba he ni wayu.
36 And one of the Pharisees made a request that he would take a meal with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house and took his seat at the table.
Ni viri Bafarisen, ri bre Yesu ye ni koh ma bawu ri. Wa Yesu ri ni koh Bafarisen, a kuson ni tebru nda ri lla.
37 And there was a woman in the town who was a sinner; and when she had news that he was a guest in the Pharisee's house, she took a bottle of perfume,
Iwa ri lah tre, a rju rji ni mi gbu nda wo Yesu he ni koh Bafarisen, nda ri lla. Nda ye ni ri iyema ni alabasta iyi ri wuwi ma.
38 And went in and took her place at the back of him, near his feet, weeping, so that his feet were washed with the drops from her eyes, and with her hair she made them dry, and kissing his feet she put the perfume on them.
Nda ye kluwei na Yesu nda tsi yi nda jum nza ma ni ma shishi ma nda sezah ma ni nfutu ma a tre kauna ma nimu zah gban zah mu ni turare.
39 Now when the Pharisee in whose house he was saw it, he said to himself, This man, if he was a prophet, would be conscious what sort of woman this is who has put her hands on him, that she is a sinner.
Bafarisen yo Yesu bi ninkon ma, ato naki nda tre ni suron ma nda ndji yi ana anabi njanji yi ani toh ndi wayi meme iwa, wa si tawu ndji wu lahtre.
40 And Jesus, answering, said, Simon, I have something to say to you. And he said, Master, say on.
Yesu kpa nyime nda hla ni wu Siman, mi son hla niwu ikperi, wa tre, hla Malam.
41 And he said, Two men were in debt to a certain man of business: one had a debt of five hundred pence, and the other of fifty.
Yesu hla ndji ri inu hla niwu ndji ha bari lah kudi niwu, ndji rima sule deri, irima ani hu rima sule hamsi.
42 When they were unable to make payment, he made the two of them free of their debts. Which of them, now, will have the greater love for him?
Bana he kudi baya hana igu wruhle bawu, hari mba, iri me nimi mba ani fi son igu?
43 Simon, in answer, said, It seems he whose debt was greater. And he said, Your decision is right.
Siman hla mi ya wa kudi ma bran, Yesu hla niwu, wu hla ndindi.
44 And turning to the woman he said to Simon, You see this woman? I came into your house; you did not give me water for my feet: but she has been washing my feet with the drops from her eyes, and drying them with her hair.
Yesu kma hi ni wa'a nda hla ni Siman wu toh wayi, mi ye ni koh me, wu na ne mma wu ngla zah muna, wawu ne, ni mashishi ma a ngla zah mu niwu, nda se zah mu ni nfutu ma.
45 You did not give me a kiss: but she, from the time when I came in, has gone on kissing my feet.
Iwu u na tsro son nimu na i wawu tie tu wa mi ye ni wa, ana bri mena.
46 You put no oil on my head: but she has put perfume on my feet.
Iwu wu na gban nye ni tumu na, a gban izah mu ni nye ni nfutu ma.
47 And so I say to you, She will have forgiveness for her sins which are great in number, because of her great love: but he who has small need of forgiveness gives little love.
A he na kiyi wa i lutre ma a bran anu kpa awa bran, nda tsro son wu brama. Wa ba wruhle ni vi fime a suron vi fime kame.
48 And he said to her, You have forgiveness for your sins.
Baya wayi ala niwu, ba wru la tre me hle niwu.
49 And those who were seated at table with him said to themselves, Who is this who even gives forgiveness of sins?
Wa ba son niki, ba son tre kpa-mba, wayi anha wa ani wru lahtre hle?”
50 And he said to the woman, By your faith you have salvation; go in peace.
Yesu hla niwu, isuron ndindima anu ceto me, hi ni si kpa.
